# What stood on this ground? The heritage register’s answer within 2000m of -43.44941, 172.63012, 5 places on record, nearest first. A register listing is a lead to follow, not by itself a claim. Distances are to each place’s recorded pin, not its boundary. The point falls inside [Belfast](https://www.chch.live/belfast) and in the [Harewood ward](https://www.chch.live/wards/harewood), Aaron Keown's seat, measured against the drawn boundaries, not the side its address is described as. The whole roll is at [/wards](https://www.chch.live/wards). The nearest break GeoNet recorded sits 1.2km from this point, a M3.4 on 21 September 2010, 8 km deep, labelled "5 km north of Christchurch" ([its record at GeoNet](https://www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/3375731)). none within a kilometre, 17 within five, the biggest inside five kilometres a M4.5 on 14 February 2016, 8 km deep. An epicentre is where the instruments placed the break, not where the shaking was felt; the whole catalogue is at [sequence](https://www.chch.live/sequence) and the story in plain language is [the earthquakes explainer](https://www.chch.live/how-nz-works/canterbury-earthquakes). The Crown’s 2011 classification left this point outside the residential red zone. The whole boundary is at [redzone](https://www.chch.live/redzone). The district plan files this ground as **Neighbourhood centre zone** (NCZ), the commercial family. A zone is a permission, not a description, the whole district’s zoning is at [zones](https://www.chch.live/zones). The 2011 grading filed this point **TC2**, technical category 2, yellow. A category is the verdict for a patch of ground, not a finding about this address, the grades are at [technical-categories](https://www.chch.live/technical-categories). The nearest mapped fault trace sits 21.1km from this point, part of the Ashley Fault Zone. A drawn trace is the record of where the ground broke or deformed, not a prediction for this address, the mapped faults are at [faults](https://www.chch.live/faults). No recorded dump under this point, the council’s landfill layer keeps the old tips on the books and this isn’t one. The ones that are, from 1880 on: [landfills](https://www.chch.live/landfills). No recorded flood patch reaches this point, the layer keeps the water it saw and never drew it here. The ground it did draw: [floods](https://www.chch.live/floods). No air-noise contour covers this point The airport’s bird-strike buffer, 8 km from the path, reaches this far. The quiet lines: [noise](https://www.chch.live/noise). The rebuild photographed this ground, **172** SCIRT frames within a few hundred metres, 2011–2013, wastewater work mostly. The nearest is about 44 m away, an access shot, [the frame itself](https://gis.ccc.govt.nz/image/SCIRT/Photos/Manhole_Photos/WWMH12514_WWMH-12514a_20130930 201336.jpg). A work log filed as the dig went on, not a survey of what stands today. The whole record: [rebuild](https://www.chch.live/rebuild). The cycleway layer files a **cycle lane** about **30 m** from this point. Within a short walk the layer files 1.5 km of network. The books' record, not today’s cones, the whole network: [cycleways](https://www.chch.live/cycleways). The rules on this ground, inside the takiwā of Te Ngai Tuahuriri Runanga. The bylaw is the instrument, this is the register’s drawing of it, thinned to ~4 m. The whole rulebook: [rules](https://www.chch.live/rules). No named scheduled area covers this point, though it sits inside a Mahaanui Iwi Management Plan silent-file precinct, the plan flags culturally sensitive ground here while deliberately withholding the specific sites. The whole schedule: [cultural](https://www.chch.live/cultural). ## The marae and the old grounds The nearest marae on the roll is [Te Ora Hou Ōtautahi](https://www.chch.live/marae/te-ora-hou), wharenui Te Iho o te Ora, 6.0km from this point (Te Ora Hou Ōtautahi, a kaupapa Māori youth and whānau organisation). The nearest named ground the plan schedules is **Kaiapohia, Kaiapoi Pā**, north of the Waimakariri, near Waikuku, 6.0km away, the great fortified capital of Ngāi Tahu, Tūrākautahi's pā, sacked by Te Rauparaha in 1832 after a siege of months; its fall is why the rūnanga moved to Tuahiwi. The whole roll: [maraes](https://www.chch.live/maraes), a record of what the file says, not a claim on this point. This point sits on the hazardous-activities register, *Vehicle refuelling, service and repair* (former, unverified); *Vehicle refuelling, service and repair* (current, unverified); *Chemical manufacture, application and bulk storage* (former, unverified). A listing records the work that ran here, not a soil test, the whole register: [hazards](https://www.chch.live/hazards). No fill parcel reaches this point, the files keep the ground that was made, and this isn’t filed as made. The parcels that are: [fill](https://www.chch.live/fill). The rockfall survey’s nearest pin sits 12.6km from this point, a rock that came down in the shakes. A pin is where the survey saw the rock, not a promise about the slope, the survey: [boulders](https://www.chch.live/boulders). ## What the model says The 2019 liquefaction vulnerability study draws this ground as **Liquefaction Damage is Possible**, River plain and channel deposits, observed performance variable and uncertainty in liquefaction performance due to effects of layered silty soil profiles. A district-scale screening read, not a finding about an address, the study itself says site-specific analysis confirms a parcel. The whole study: [vulnerability](https://www.chch.live/vulnerability). ## The armour The nearest engineered defence sits 13.2km away, a rock cable installed 2011. Nearly all are the emergency works the quake years left standing; the file’s condition rating is its own word, not a fresh inspection. The register: [defences](https://www.chch.live/defences). ## The canopy The register counts **29** notable trees within half a kilometre of this point, **12** veterans, 17 carrying a protection, the nearest is **Flowering Cherry**, 4 m tall, a crown 9 m across, carrying a subdivision protection, on private land, 99m away. A tree record is the register’s word on what stands, not a fresh survey. The canopy: [trees](https://www.chch.live/trees). ## What the record says ### [Commercial building and Setting, Scanes Store](https://www.chch.live/place/143) 181m from your point 20 unread leads ### [Dwelling and setting, Belfast School Master's House](https://www.chch.live/place/141) 734m from your point 6 unread leads ## On the register nearby - [Commercial building and Setting, Scanes Store](https://www.chch.live/place/143), 181m · 1 Cassidy Place - [Dwelling and setting, Belfast School Master's House](https://www.chch.live/place/141), 734m · 665 Main North Road - [Kapuatohe Reserve](https://www.chch.live/place/471), 749m · 665 Main North Road - [Dwelling and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/423), 770m · 663 Main North Road - [St David's Church and Setting](https://www.chch.live/place/142), 785m · 831 Main North Road ## How this answer is made The register this asks is the district-plan heritage schedule and the Heritage New Zealand list, scheduled places, not everything that stood here.
